Group of North Carolina teachers are in Washington D.C. for the NCCAT program "Teaching the Holocaust: Resources and Reflection." The aim of this program is to gain an understanding of the precursors, events, and consequences of the Holocaust and to grapple with the problem of how best to convey this history and the meaning that it can have in the lives and civic practices of our students.

The opportunity to attend the Holocaust Seminar through the North Carolina Center for the Advancement of Teaching was truly a life changing experience. As a high school history teacher, I thought I knew a great deal about the Holocaust and the events surrounding this historical atrocity. However, after visiting the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum in Washington, D.C., I found out that there was so much I did not know.

Joshua Gaskill, a History teacher from Pamlico County High School, wrote this blog post about his time at "Teaching the Holocaust: Resources and Reflection" with NCCAT Nov. 16-20. Thank you to Joshua for taking part and sharing about his experience!
